    So it was Adverse in question 5? AEIOU is correct!!!

    I didn’t think it was pervasive, so for that reason I said it was qualified, execept for… However, I made that decision on a hunch, I think if you made a case for it being pervasive, then I’m sure you could get credit for saying it was should get an adverse opinion.

    On the same question, I concluded that both scenarios were material, having worked out the benchmark figures for both. Was I correct?

    That’s the conclusion I reached too. And I agree with Viliaty that the first was adjusting, the second wasn’t (but it required a disclosure).

    From what I remember I mentioned bank confirmation, reperform reconciliation, analytical comparison with previous year, and month by month, check bank accounts after year end, physically count the cash, management representation

    Sorry to hear that. But if you answered everything else, and you think you did ok on the other questions, then you stand a very good chance of passing. You only need 50% after all.

    May I am wrong then but either it is adverse or qualified it is going to earn only one mark !
    1 more mark for reffering the basis of the opinion paragraph before the opinion paragraph and the other one I think to exlain that it is due to material mistatements and that the opinion Not give a T+F view (if adverse) or except for (if qualified)

    It is based on materiality really…..we cannot really say as we do not know what percentages the entity has used to base its materiality….all companies are different based on the level of risk…..I gave different options….I said the results if it was immaterial, the results if it was material but not pervasive and the results if it was both material and pervasive

    How do you know it was material if we were not given the materiality percentages?
